Time to vote in "Weird! Isn't Working" essay contest

We knew the theme "Weird! Isn't Working," and the new bumper sticker with the same message, would strike a chord with our readers. We have no fewer than 16 entries in our essay contest, in which the top two vote-getters will get free stickers mailed out to them tomorrow.

Readers, if you haven't read all the entries, here they are: We've got 13 here and another 3 here. Al M. left a comment in each batch, but his first one is short enough for Twitter, and so only his second comment is in the running.

Once you've taken a look at all the comments (or not), cast your vote for your one favorite here. We'll close off the voting at midnight tonight and announce the winner tomorrow morning. Good luck, contestants!

I found Gannicots essay the most eloquent but I just have to go with gaye harris, and her hilarious description of Portland Weird that included the 5th grades class at Glencoe Grade Schools 2002 wall mural. There is no weird like Southeast Portland Weird.
